Dennis sets visits

The 2018-19 American Athletic Conference Rookie of the Year has narrowed things down and started to set visits. His first two will come this week.

“I have set my first two visits,” Dennis told On3. “I will go to Indiana on Monday (4/18) and then to Clemson on Wednesday (4/20). I’m looking to visit other schools, but I have not set those dates yet.”

In their words

“I’m looking to become a more efficient two-way player on a winning team,” Dennis said. “I want to be a big piece of the success within the team, and I want to advance to the tournament and win.”

“He’s one of the best on-ball defenders in our conference.” Wichita State head coach Isaac Brown said to the media during availability after a February win against Tulsa. “A guy that understands scouting reports. A guy that is always in the right spot.”
